I don't think so, I sit pretty comfortably in my chair at the desk, and I think it'd be a little too tall without a chair

You can check their site! Deskhaus also sells combos of legs and top, and I think they source better tops than I did desk.haus/

Short, haha. I went for the extended legs because the minimum height of the extended legs is the ergonomically recommended height for me. If I got a footrest under my desk, I could've gone for a regular height range.

I just bought the base during the holiday sale, and it can support 400+ lbs as it's stated... The base is perfectly fine, just make sure the tabletop you choose won't bow or deform under that weight... From what I've seen, with the supports, I don't think that will be an issue any time soon.

Sorry to not reply, but I've had 3 monitors on my desk (one of them is a very heavy monitor) and things seem to be fine! Both with legs and tabletop (minus a dent i made when I dropped a camera on the tabletop)

Yeah it did dent when i dropped my camera on it on accident, but other than that, no problems! Going for a stronger finish/coating or using end grain instead of side grain I'm guessing would make it more dent resistant

I had to drill it myself! I just marked out holes with the legs/accessories in place with a pencil

Been really liking it! Thinking of taking it apart to oil it down since it's been like 2 years. I did make a slight ding in the surface when i dropped my camera on it, but probably because i opted for a very light finish instead of something more durable from the manufacturer (the butcher block was from home depot)

Flexipro e7. ( sale on it tomorrow ) ;)

Get the Apex Pro?

I would assume all the screws come?

Yeah the necessary hardware is included, but I opted to go for threaded inserts instead of using the included screws. For just the legs, I think you need 6

Ah, sorry it took so long to respond! I'm confused what feet slides/"floaty things" you mean: i have those disc slides but I only used them to move the desk into position, otherwise it's way too heavy to lift or drag haha. Once the desk is in position, i do my best to left the desk just high enough to kick the feed slides out. Those moving disc slides (which you can get from HD or a hardware store) are immensely helpful and I keep them in my "homeowner's toolkit" now =D

@@AaronWChen That is what I meant, you called them floaty things in the video :) Well I ended up putting together my apex pro and have slides underneath it now, so nice to be able to spot move around the desk and it doesn't seem to affect stability at all, maybe even makes it better. Was trying to choose between these and casters and glad I didn't go with casters! thanks for the reply though!

Indeed! I would love to go back with a convertible haha

@@AaronWChen A cyclist friend of mine rode his bike through there.

Hi Kelly! Yes, very much so. I keep adding stuff to the desk and it's been rock solid stable! I even use an under desk treadmill with it lately and it doesn't seem to react to me leaving my hands on the desk, keyboard, or notepad while I'm walking and working. I had even picked up an Ikea Bekant from the As/Is section for cheap to use at my brother's place and it is definitely not as stable. The Bekant starts wobbling not too much higher than my sitting height, which is really saying something since I'm only 5'4"! This maple butcher block/Apex Pro desk is easily the nicest furniture I've ever owned. No, Deskhaus is not paying me, haha.

@@AaronWChen Thanks for your response. Just so you'll know, I've been considering Apex Pro for a while but it was YOUR video that convinced me to purchase it, so maybe they should sponsor you. In fact, it just arrived yesterday and I'll be setting it up sometime next week. Do you have any suggestions for assembly or cable managment? I'm currently considering this solution from Steelcase: czcams.com/video/K2qf1RwcoT4/video.html Thanks!

@@idealynx I'm sorry I didn't get to this til now! Honestly, my cable management has only really used what came with the Apex Pro legs, but I had wanted to get a cable shelf to mount underneath to help tidy things up. The Steelcase thing you linked looks AWESOME! Did you end up getting that?

@@AaronWChen ​ @Aaron W. Chen The only thing I purchased is the German-made cable snake that Deskhaus sells. I really like the Steelcase Universal Cable Management kit I posted above, but dealing with Steelcase is a pain. Getting the kit is no problem, but if you want to get the the powerstrips that slide into the kit it's a royal PITA. Basically, you have to go through a dealer and the price for just the two powerstips is $176-$210, depending on the configuration. Great idea. Poor distribution network and way too expensive.

@@AaronWChen Thinking of getting this. You kept adding stuff to make it more stable? What do you mean? I'm ready to get either this, the pro max, or the 4 legged uplift. How did you make it even more stable?

My brother helped me out! We had to communicate the flipping and rotation ideas because it is obviously too heavy to try to do it as you flip. I hope you managed to move it safely

Right, I was demonstrating worst case scenarios, especially for people that are taller than me (I'm short)

@@AaronWChen I ordered my Apex Pro yesterday. I’ll be here this weekend. I’m stoked.

@@aloha_from_bradley how's the desk?

@@aloha_from_bradley how's the desk?

@@GandaBaer Absolutely fantastic. Can't say enough about it. Extremely stable, best desk base on the market by far. They are expensive, but worth it.

No problem! Glad it was informative

I have the Apex Pro Max from Deskhaus and the stability is real. Very pleased now 1 month later. Mine is on wood floor.

@@csc1752 what top is yours?

It's very close! I think it's only like a tenth to a quarter mile from the parking lot (which is why it gets super busy)

glad it was helpful!

That would be " objective ":)

@@doyle5883 indeed :D

A lot but this is by far the nicest desk, maybe even furniture, I've ever had

If you knew anything, you would know that carpet makes stability much worse

I mean I was thinking about this same desk and my apartment has the same carpet so it actually does help

@@chadz6728 less stable on carpet than hard floors.

I'm glad I was helpful! Was trying to demonstrate worst case scenarios

I could've sworn I replied to this with a link! I'm sorry. It may have gotten filtered because it was to Amazon and even without any affiliate codes, I would understand if there's a bot that prunes those types of comments. I got the PHIVE LED desk lamp: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07MHH9Q7B/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Aaron on the Phive desk lamp, are you having any problems with the light flickering? Thanks@@AaronWChen

Very much agree! Would love to go back! When did you go?

@@AaronWChen many years ago..... I go to the rocky mountains all the time but never went back to the sun road ...... yet

Yeah I think the driver just wanted pictures, which I understand but also... I think he was going 5 mph and this road is 50 miles long

That sounds awesome! I'm jealous of your trip 😊 please don't hesitate to reach out if I can help (or live vicariously through you)

@@AaronWChen Will do.

aha, glad you like it! sorry it took so long for me to reply!

Thank you so much for the suggestions! I would LOVE to see this area with snow, so I'm adding these to my phototrip wishlist =D

Oh cool! Thanks for sharing! I've never been over there so it's cool to see it!

@@AaronWChen Yes, it's like they're twin roads from opposite sides of the world :)

very late to reply, but i'm glad you liked it!

That's awesome, I'm glad you enjoy your R! I'm also semi surprised you used your original 5D for so long!

Glad you liked it! Have you been to this mountain?

Thanks much for the kind words! Yes, the bright lights were car headlights from way further down the canyon. I think I used 10+ second exposures so cars coming towards my spot inadvertently ended up becoming super bright! Hope to see you around! =D

Thank you for watching and commenting! Have you done this drive yourself?

@@AaronWChen Sadly, no. I can hardly walk so leaving the house is a project, much less driving cross-country. Thus I find drive videos such as yours a great blessing!

@@auntlavinia8170 I will do my best to make and share more! Was thinking of doing one showing SF Bay Area rush hour traffic for masochists aha

Of course! =D

I'm glad you liked it!

I take it that you've visited? :) When did you go? Thanks for commenting BTW!

@@AaronWChen a couple of years ago👍😉
